Finding church planters
Leadership Network has done it again. Another top quality paper. This time on finding church planters.
This paper reviews the best practices of strong church-planting churches as they discern those called to do church planting. They don’t offer Google-style speed, but they can definitely tell you when you are getting warm by using the following clues to identify the person called and gifted to plant a church.
You are getting “warmer” when . . .
- You work with someone you know
- You reference objective standards such as those developed by Charles Ridley
- You use a behavioral interview approach
- You work with people who pass the “hang-out” test
- You find a prospective church planter through a mix of passion and divine “accidents”

A request for Leadership Network: make your next research paper about best practice in growing future church planters. That's the difference between addition and multiplication.
